 0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ | idk if google uses llvm built kernels on their devices, but they definitely have an interest in llvm built linux | 15:15:18 |
 Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I assume it was for ChomeOS? | 15:15:25 |
| 0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ | oh, yes,
clang built kernels are used in android apparently | 15:15:43 |
| 0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ | https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/kbuild/llvm.html | 15:15:50 |
| 0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ |
Distributions such as Android, ChromeOS, OpenMandriva, and Chimera Linux use Clang built kernels. Google’s and Meta’s datacenter fleets also run kernels built with Clang.

 alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | ohh neat | 15:17:12 |
| 0x4fbb09 it/its ⛯✇ΘΔ | so yeah, because corpos are interested in it, i'd expect it to work well on x86 and arm | 15:17:31 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | btw, does single user mode support Nixsa or nix portable?
like, does it like to be runner inside a bwrap environment more than the multi user variant
| 15:18:01 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | I mean, clang is very nice | 15:18:15 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | it could be just the developer experience why they liked kt | 15:18:40 |
 K900 | ...what | 15:18:57 |
| K900 | The kernel doesn't have C++ coroutines in it thought? | 15:19:11 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | 😭 | 15:19:11 |
| K900 | * The kernel doesn't have C++ coroutines in it though? | 15:19:13 |
| alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | i didnt get single-user mode working yet, the official nix documentation is very sparse and my homedir is a symlink to some container so it refuses to createa nix store without root | 15:19:20 |
| K900 | Also oh god linux-libre | 15:19:25 |
| K900 | Why would you ever | 15:19:28 |
| alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | oh yeah i meant it more in general that i wouldnt want to use a kernel built with gcc since i read blog posts about compiler horrors beyond my comprehension | 15:20:01 |
| K900 | Clang has plenty of those tbh | 15:20:14 |
| K900 | Rust is still finding new and exciting miscompilations in LLVM like every other week | 15:20:30 |

| alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | i dont have a good enough reason, just because i can and was a bored 18 year old student | 15:20:35 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | Does it though | 15:20:37 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | real | 15:20:47 |
| alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | my laptop needs proprietary intel drivers anyway for bluetooth & wifi | 15:21:07 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | why 😭 | 15:21:14 |
| K900 | What? | 15:21:30 |
| alina arielle amelie🏳️⚧️🐾 | there are apparently wifi cards that support open source drivers like athena or smth but i havent yet had the money to buy one | 15:21:31 |
| K900 | Does what though | 15:21:35 |
| Sofie 🏳️⚧️ (she/her) | C++ coroutines | 15:21:49 |
